We prove several results about integers represented by positive definite quadratic forms, using a Fourier analysis approach. In particular, for an integer $\ell\geq 1$, we improve the error term in the partial sums of the number of…

We study congruences modulo powers of a prime $p$ between pairs of $p$-new modular Hecke eigenforms of level $\Gamma_0(p)$ and same weight $k$. Based on explicit computations, we conjecture that every such eigenform $f$ admits a twin to…

We present a conjecture on the average number of Galois orbits of newforms when fixing the weight and varying the level. This conjecture implies, for instance, that the central L-values (resp. L-derivatives) are nonzero for 100% of even…

We study modular forms for $\textrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with no negative Fourier coefficients. Let $A(k)$ be the positive integer where if the first $A(k)$ Fourier coefficients of a modular form of weight $k$ for $\textrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$…

We show that the multiple divisor functions of integers in invertible residue classes modulo a prime number, as well as the Fourier coefficients of GL(N) Maass cusp forms for all N larger than 2, satisfy a central limit theorem in a…

For an element $a$ of an integral domain D under an equivalence relation \tau, the \tau-factorization of a is defined as \lambda a_1 a_2... a_k, where \lambda is a unit in D and a_i \tau a_j for all i, j. An irreducible element has no…

We consider sign changes of Fourier coefficients of Hecke-Maass cusp forms for the group $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb Z)$. When the underlying form is self-dual, we show that there are $\gg_\varepsilon X^{5/6-\varepsilon}$ sign changes among the…

We study statistical properties of Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on GL(n). For most Hecke-Maass cusp forms, we give the asymptotic number of nonvanishing coefficients, show that there is a positive proportion of sign changes…

We study a canonical basis for spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weights 12, 16, 18, 20, 22, and 26 on the full modular group. We prove a relation between the Fourier coefficients of modular forms in this canonical basis and a…

In 1961, Rankin determined the asymptotic behavior of the number $S_{k,q}(x)$ of positive integers $n\le x$ for which a given prime $q$ does not divide $\sigma_k(n),$ the $k$-th divisor sum function. By computing the associated…

The proposed high-luminosity B/Flavor factories offer new opportunities for the improved determination of the fundamental physical parameters of standard heavy leptons. Compared to the electron or the muon case, the magnetic properties of…

While solving a special case of a question of Erd\H{o}s and Graham Steinerberger asks for all integers $n$ with $\phi(n)=\frac{2}{3} \cdot (n+1)$. He discovered the solutions $n\in\{5, 5 \cdot 7, 5\cdot 7\cdot 37, 5\cdot 7\cdot 37\cdot…

Denote by $\tau$ k (n), $\omega$(n) and $\mu$ 2 (n) the number of representations of n as product of k natural numbers, the number of distinct prime factors of n and the characteristic function of the square-free integers, respectively. Let…

This article focuses on the theta series on the 6-fold cover of GL$_2$. We investigate the Fourier coefficients $\tau(r)$ of the theta series, and give partially proven, partially conjectured values for $\tau(\pi)^2$, $\tau(\pi^2)$ and…

A PV number is an algebraic integer $\alpha$ of degree $d \geq 2$ all of whose Galois conjugates other than itself have modulus less than $1$. Erd\"{o}s \cite{erdos} proved that the Fourier transform $\widehat \varphi,$ of a nonzero…

We give upper bounds on the size of the gap between the constant term and the next non-zero Fourier coefficient of an entire modular form of given weight for \Gamma_0(2). Numerical evidence indicates that a sharper bound holds for the…

In 1948, Erd\"{o}s and Straus formulated a conjecture : for any positive integer $n>2$, there exist positive integers $n_1,n_2$ and $n_3$ such that…

In this paper we prove that for each integer of the form $n=4\varpi$ (where $\varpi$ is a prime between $17$ and $73$) at least one of the following groups: $P\Omega^+_n(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$, $PSO^+_n(\mathbb{F}_{\ell^s})$,…

We investigate certain finiteness questions that arise naturally when studying approximations modulo prime powers of p-adic Galois representations coming from modular forms. We link these finiteness statements with a question by K. Buzzard…
